Mountain Forest Honeydew Honey (227g)

Our Mountain Forest Honeydew Honey is produced from honeydews collected from forest trees including fir, oak and beech, at times of the year and in locations where nectar from flowers is not available. Known locally as ‘manna ’, it has a strong, dark muscovado sugar taste and aroma with spicy overtones. Honeydew originates from the sugar-rich sap that feeds the tree. It is made in the leaves using mineral-rich water brought up from the roots combined with oxygen and energy from the sun, and incorporates a range of nutrients not found in flower nectar.

Description

Mountain Forest Honeydew Honey – Raw Artisan Honey (227 g)

Rich & Aromatic Raw Honeydew Honey from Carpathian Forests

Discover Mountain Forest Honeydew Honey, a distinctive raw honeydew honey harvested from the pristine forests of the Carpathian Mountains. Unlike traditional blossom honey, this rich honey is produced when bees collect honeydew — sugary secretions from tree sap-feeding insects — resulting in a naturally dark, complex and intensely flavoured honey with deep forest-like notes.

Naturally Raw, Unfiltered & Full-Bodied

Our raw honeydew honey is 100% natural, unprocessed and unfiltered to preserve beneficial enzymes, antioxidants and its full character. With bold, malt-like sweetness and resinous hints of pine, balsam and rich toffee, this artisan honey is beloved by chefs and honey connoisseurs alike for its unique depth and complexity.


Pairing

Mountain Forest Honeydew Honey is a versatile gourmet ingredient:

  • Drizzle over porridge, granola or yoghurt
  • Stir into tea, coffee or herbal infusions
  • Pair with cheese boards — especially mature and blue cheeses
  • Use as a natural sweetener in marinades, dressings and glazes
  • Add to bread and butter or warm pastries

Perfect as a natural sweetener, gourmet pantry favourite or artisan gourmet food gift.

Additional information

Benefits

Pure honey is naturally high in antioxidants derived from nectar. Typically, 82% sugars (glucose and fructose), 18% ‘B’ vitamins and minerals. Raw honey is unheated during processing to avoid damaging these delicate, nutritious compounds which support a healthy immune system.

Storage

Honey is ideally stored at room temperature (around 18-22 Celsius) and need not be refrigerated to preserve it in top condition for up to two years. Exposing honey to temperatures above 35 C (hive temperature) from the sun or other heat sources can damage vitamin content and flavour, so please store out of direct sunlight and away from radiators. All natural honey will begin slowly to crystallise after a period of time dependent on its aromatic content. It can be used semi-set in the same way as when clear, but if you wish to return its clarity, place in a warm cupboard at 30-35 C and over a few days it will clarify.
